Once he decided to speed things up, Qin Zhao decided to take the initiative and not follow the route of subtle seduction.
The next day, after breakfast, I planned to wander around the base hoping to bump into Yao Na.
Whether it was fate or not, he ran into Yao Na, who was returning from seeing Geng Lang off at the base, not long after he left.
Yao Na's eyes lit up slightly when she saw Qin Zhao's bright eyes, and their eyes met.
Qin Zhao smiled slightly, his peach blossom eyes filled with tender affection as he looked at her, and Yao Na felt a sense of love at first sight.
Yao Na lowered her head slightly and looked away with a hint of shyness.
Seeing her appearance, Qin Zhao's eyes flickered slightly, and he took the initiative to step forward and greet her: "Sister Yao, why are you here alone?"
Yao Na pulled her hair back, not daring to look Qin Zhao in the eye, and said with her head down, "Brother Lang went to look for supplies a couple of days ago and happened to run into you. He didn't find any supplies, so he went again with his team today. I just brought him back."
"I see." Qin Zhao responded, his gaze never leaving Yao Na's face. He coughed lightly, seemingly a little reserved, "Um... I've been here for two days and I'm still not familiar with the base. I wonder if Sister Yao would have time to show me around?"
She took him around, just the two of them?
Yao Na's mind raced, and she became even more certain that Qin Zhao had different feelings for her, at the very least, a man's appreciation for a woman.
Although she already knew the answer in her heart, she still said reservedly, "Why didn't you let Lili show you around? She knows about the situation at the base."
"Her?" Qin Zhao sighed. "She already had a bad temper, and it's gotten even worse since she came to the base. Let alone asking her to show me around, she's not even willing to keep me company."
Hearing this, Yao Na was somewhat surprised: "Why? Aren't you two very close?"
"It's not a matter of whether our feelings are good or bad." Qin Zhao sighed again, seemingly somewhat helpless: "My relationship with her was an accident from the start. If we hadn't both been drunk that day..."
At this point, Qin Zhao seemed to realize that it wasn't appropriate to say these things in front of Yao Na, so he coughed lightly and said, "That was her first time, and I had to take responsibility, so I got together with her. Actually, I don't admire her personality. My ideal partner should be someone like Sister Yao."
His words seemed to carry a deeper meaning and a certain implication, yet they also seemed to be just casual remarks.
An ordinary person would have simply ignored these words and let it pass, but Yao Na raised her eyes, her watery eyes looking at him, and asked, "What do you mean by 'like me'?"
Qin Zhao looked at her deeply, with affection and tenderness, and whispered, "Naturally, she is as gentle, generous, and understanding as Sister Yao."
Qin Zhao has exceptionally beautiful peach blossom eyes. When he looks at you intently, it's as if they're brimming with affection, and you're the only one in his eyes.
Yao Na was a shrewd person, so how could she not understand Qin Zhao's implied meaning? She looked at Qin Zhao, whose face was much more handsome than Geng Lang's, and her heart began to stir with desire.
"Don't tease me." Yao Na looked away, smiling shyly, and said, "I'm not as good as you say."
"You do." Qin Zhao, unlike his usual casual self, answered with extreme seriousness: "From the first moment I saw you, I knew you did."
Yao Na's eyes flickered slightly: "Didn't you want to take a look around the base? I happen to be free, so I'll show you around."
The fish had taken the bait, and Qin Zhao smiled readily, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Sister Yao."
